Moving large files farther: Why UDP file transfers are 100x faster than TCP The total time required to transfer large files over the internet can take ages. It gets even worse if your recipient is halfway across the globe. While many organizations transfer files through popular transmission control protocol (TCP)-based methods like file transfer protocol (FTP), secure file transfer protocol (SFTP) and hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP), you can actually achieve shorter transfer times with the user datagram protocol (UDP). So, just how much faster can UDP be?
